Review: This wine is sweet. There's some sort of raspberry flavor, but it hits really funny on the palate, sort of like cough syrup. The finish is strangely spicy and just a touch bitter. I got a chuckle out of the bottle -- they call the wine "delicious" not once, but twice! Just to make sure you know.

Barefoot is a subsidiary of E&J Gallo, just like last week's Apothic Red, who seem to specialize in uncomplicated wines with mass appeal. The Barefoot website tells the story of wanting to create a brand of wine that didn't take itself too seriously. I can understand that. I've enjoyed many a wine that have been simple and easy drinking. Despite its "delicious" labeling, I can't say I enjoyed this
